Definitions

  • an artificial intelligence (artificial intelligence, AI) algorithm is expected to be used to break through performance bottlenecks caused by conventional modular system modeling and model approximation in typical fields such as channel estimation, pilot detection, signal equalization, and user scheduling.
  • AI artificial intelligence
  • the AI algorithm can improve network performance in aspects of channel state information (channel state information, CSI) feedback enhancement, beam management, positioning accuracy enhancement, energy saving, mobility optimization, load balancing, and the like.
  • An AI model may be usually deployed on a base station side or a terminal side. How to improve network performance when the AI model is enabled is an urgent problem to be resolved.
  • the terminal device may determine, based on the first condition threshold, whether to enable the AI function. For example, when the AI inference result of the terminal device meets the first condition threshold, the terminal device enables the AI function. The terminal device determines, based on the AI inference result, whether to enable the AI function. This better meets a communication status of the terminal device, and a determining result is more accurate.
  • the first condition threshold includes either an AI inference result confidence threshold or a deviation threshold between the AI inference result and actual measurement information.
  • the configuration information includes area information
  • the area information indicates an area in which the terminal device is allowed to enable the AI function.
  • the determining, based on the configuration information, whether to enable the AI function includes: enabling the AI function in the area indicated by the area information.
  • the terminal device may determine, based on the area information, whether to enable the AI function. For example, the terminal device enables the AI function in the area indicated by the area information, so that the AI function can be enabled more accurately, and computing resources of the terminal can be saved.
  • the communication method when it is determined, based on the configuration information, to enable the AI function, the communication method further includes: enabling an AI model for implementing the AI function; receiving a measurement configuration from the network device; obtaining the AI inference result based on the measurement configuration and the AI model; and sending a measurement report to the network device, where the measurement report includes the AI inference result.
  • the measurement report further includes at least one of second indication information, third indication information, and fourth indication information.
  • the second indication information indicates that the AI inference result is a result obtained through inference based on the AI model
  • the third indication information indicates whether the AI inference result is consistent with the actual measurement information
  • the fourth indication information indicates deployment node information and collaboration level information of the AI model.
  • the measurement report may not only include the AI inference result, but also include more of the foregoing information (for example, the second indication information, the third indication information, and the fourth indication information), so that the network device determines the cause of the network performance deterioration based on more information. This can improve accuracy of determining, by the network device, the cause of the network performance deterioration.
  • the measurement report further includes one or more of indication information for suggesting whether to disable the AI function and key performance indicator (key performance indicator, KPI) feedback information.
  • collaboration levels may be classified into three types: a level 0 AI collaboration function (level 0 for short), a level 1 AI collaboration function (level 1 for short), and a level 2 AI collaboration function (level 2 for short).
  • the level 0 is also referred to as no collaboration (No collaboration).
  • No collaboration an AI model of the network device is completely invisible to the terminal device. Training and inference of the AI model are completed inside the network device, and information about the model or information about a model instance is not sent to the terminal device over an air interface.
  • the level 2 is also referred to as signaling-based collaboration with model transfer (signaling-based collaboration with model transfer).
  • the AI model is deployed in each of the network device and the terminal device, and both the network device and the terminal device can perform inference.
  • the information about the AI model can be exchanged over the air interface.
  • a difference between the level 2 and the level 1 includes that in the level 2, the information about the AI model can be transmitted over the air interface.
  • the level 0/1/2 is merely an example.
  • the level 0 may alternatively be represented by a level x
  • the level 1 may alternatively be represented by a level y
  • the level 2 may alternatively be represented by a level z. This is not limited in this application.
  • AI use case is also referred to as an AI application scenario or the AI function.
  • AI use cases include but are not limited to: channel state information (channel status information, CSI) feedback enhancement (CSI feedback enhancement), beam management enhancement (beam management enhancement), positioning enhancement (positioning accuracy enhancement), network energy saving (network energy saving), load balancing (load balancing), and mobility optimization (mobility optimization). Descriptions are separately provided below.
  • one AI function may include a plurality of AI sub-functions.
  • the load balancing enables loads to be evenly distributed between cells and between areas in the cell, or transfers some traffic from a congested cell, or allows a user to perform traffic distribution in a cell, a carrier, or an access mode, to improve network performance.
  • Load balancing performance is improved based on the AI model. For example, various measurements, feedback, historical data, and the like of the terminal device and a network node are input to the AI model to improve the load balancing performance, so that higher-quality user experience can be provided, and a system capacity can be improved.
  • the mobility management is a solution that ensures service continuity during movement of the terminal device by minimizing a call drop, a radio link failure (radio link failure, RLF), unnecessary handover, and a ping-pong effect.
  • AI can enhance the mobility management, for example, reduce a probability of an unexpected event, predict a position, mobility, or performance of the terminal device, and guide traffic.
  • the terminal device In a connected (connected) state, the terminal device establishes an RRC connection to the network device for data transmission.
  • the terminal device In an inactive (inactive) state, the terminal device first enters a connected state, then the network device releases an RRC connection, and the network device and the terminal device store a context. If the terminal device needs to enter the connected state from the inactive state, the terminal device needs to initiate an RRC connection resume process. In comparison with an RRC establishment process, the RRC resume process has a shorter delay and fewer signaling overheads.
  • FIG. 4 is an interaction diagram of a communication method according to an embodiment of this application. As shown in FIG. 4 , the communication method may include S401 and S402.
  • the network device may manage whether to enable the AI function on the terminal device side, to improve management and control of a network side on network performance, and reduce impact of enabling the AI function on the terminal device side on the network performance.
  • the terminal device determines, based on the configuration information, whether to enable the AI function.
  • the terminal device enables an AI model for implementing the AI function.
  • the terminal device obtains an AI inference result based on the measurement configuration and the AI model.
  • Beam management enhancement is used as an example for description.
  • the terminal device receives the measurement configuration from the network device as a training input (for example, the SSB beam sweeping).
  • Model training is completed inside the terminal device, and the terminal device may generate k (where k is a positive integer) pieces of optimal beam information based on the AI inference result.
  • the terminal device may feed back, to the network device, information such as the k pieces of optimal beam information and an optimal CSI-RS identifier that are based on the AI inference result.
  • CSI enhancement is used as an example for description.
  • the terminal device uses the measurement configuration, for example, the CSI-RS received from the network device as a training input.
  • Model training is completed inside the terminal device, and information such as a CQI, a precoding matrix indicator (precoding matrix indicator, PMI), and a CSI-RS resource indicator (CSI-RS resource indicator, CRI) that are optimized based on the AI inference result is obtained.
  • the terminal device sends a measurement report to the network device, where the measurement report includes the AI inference result.
  • the measurement report may further include any one or more of the following:
  • the measurement report may further include one or more of a type of the AI model (for example, the original AI model or the trained and optimized AI model), parameter adjustment information of the AI model (for example, parameter adjustment information of the trained and optimized AI model relative to the original AI model), indication information for suggesting whether to disable the AI function, and KPI feedback information.
  • the terminal device may independently determine whether the AI inference result is consistent with the actual measurement result, or whether a deviation between the AI inference result and the actual measurement result exceeds a deviation threshold, and may report the indication information for suggesting whether to disable the AI function.
  • the KPI feedback information may be information obtained through actual measurement by the terminal device.
  • the KPI feedback information may include a downlink rate and the like.
  • the KPI feedback information may include prediction accuracy of K optimal beams and the like.
  • the KPI feedback information may include indication information indicating time of arrival (TOA) of a channel of a LOS path and the like, or include indication information indicating whether a LOS/NLOS state obtained through AI model inference is accurate and the like.
  • TOA time of arrival
  • the terminal device does not perform measurement, and selects the recovery beam based on the AI inference result to perform BFR. If the BFR fails, the terminal device reports the measurement report, and indicates, to the network device, that the recovery beam selected by the terminal device is obtained based on the AI inference result. In this way, the network device can determine that a cause of the beam failure recovery is that the selected beam is not applicable to the beam failure recovery due to the improper AI model on the terminal device side. Therefore, the network device may indicate the terminal device to optimize or disable the AI model on the terminal device side.
  • the network device may determine, based on the measurement report, whether a network exception or network performance deterioration is caused by an improper configuration on a network side or caused by an inaccurate AI inference result on the terminal device side.
